Have one on the deck. Gas. Used to be a confirmed charcoal user but the wife's pesky need/want to have stuff redone, reheated and 'cooked some more' 15 minutes after I shut if off, well, that made me a confirmed propane lover. The Weber Silver series with the 3 burner tubes is the bomb!!!

Got a baby Weber-Q for SilverToy and it cooks GREAT using the 1lb or 5lb bottles!!! I had 'em drooling at Custer SD for some of the terriyaki chicken I was grillin' - good thing I ALWAYS cook extra!!

If you are looking for the BEST (IMHO) portable grill on the market, look into the Solaire IR17-B at www.solaire.com. It is small, light, totally stainless and cooks by infra red radiation . Very fast and a great way to grill. I've had Charmglows, 5 different Webers, Colemans and a host of others. Nothing compares to the Solaire!!

BTW, I just became a dealer for them so if anyone is interested, PM me and I'll give you the details.

I picked up my new Bubba Q up yesterday at my local Walmart for $20 on clearance. It is tall enough to cook beercan chickens. It's pretty shiney but I think I need to exercise the old Cyclo to get a real mirror finish.http://www.airforums.com/attachments.../0/ASgrill.jpg

The Q100 arrived today. No more than 10 minutes to unpack, assemble handle/cotter pins, and attach 16.4 oz propane cartridge (the wire support that made it difficult to use the larger propane cartridges wasn't present, I guess in response to the universal complaints about it getting in the way).
The grill is porcelain-coated cast-iron, so no seasoning necessary! But I did season some chicken thighs, threw them on the pre-heated grill, and 10 min later, they were superb. The grill leaves markings of a professional grilling setup! The Q100 is definitely a keeper, with 95% of web reviews in the 5-star range. Of course if you have specialized BBQ needs, like beercan chicken, you'll need a larger grill, but this is a great choice for the rest of us!
